The musical acts predominantly represent electronic music (Borka, Žiga Murko, Some1Else, BeatMyth, New Wave Syria, Kleemar, etc.), accompanied by occasional alternative rock-oriented acts (Tovariš Strmoglavljen, 12). The festival also organises annual workshops for creating various whale sculptures. Hence, the festival has seen its fair share of whales, from robotic to gigantic.
The festival – which also has a club pre-event called "Half-whale there" – is co-produced by Velenje Youth Centre (MC Velenje) and is supported by the Velenje Urban Municipality.
